Course summary
On MA Ancient and Medieval History, you will take a combination of Greek and Roman history courses from classics and medieval history courses from history, together producing a well-rounded experience bridging the ancient and medieval European and Mediterranean worlds.
In history and classics, we have particular expertise in the history of Late Antiquity, Byzantium and the early medieval west, with the result that the two subjects are well integrated.
How will I learn?
Courses are taught through a combination of lectures, seminars and small group tutorials. Some classes take you out of the classroom and into the local museums and libraries. Especially at honours level, teaching is often closely inspired by the cutting-edge research of our academic staff.
Career opportunities
You will acquire practical, intellectual and theoretical skills that are highly valued by employers. You will gain rigorous mental training in a range of disciplines, enabling you to demonstrate intellectual flexibility and the ability to adapt to new situations and to learn new skills.
Our Classics graduates have gone on to pursue a range of career paths. Previous graduates now work in journalism, museums, teaching, academia, accountancy, finance, IT, publishing, the armed forces, the legal profession and the civil service.
